If that is your problem, then you have two choices. Make the field packed or
cast the packed field to a numeric(6,0). Whether other fields are zoned
should be immaterial. You couldn't even measure the time difference for the
system converting or not.

I am getting an SQL7919 - Data conversion required on Fetch with Reason 2.
The host variable is a numeric type that is different than the type of

Here is what I'm doing...
I have a Procedure called FetchNextItem.

82 D 11s 3
83 D C1maprd...
84 D 15a

So the problem is that C1mord is defined as 6s 0 and the data coming from
the DB in sql is packed. Is there a way around this? I understand what
is happening, I'm just not sure what to do about it. I don't really want
to make C1mord packed because I'm using it with zoned fields everywhere
else. Would I have to do this with all of my numeric fields? Should I be
casting the variables on my select statement?

Thanks
